she invited him and all her friends.
None of which did attend,
her happiness came to an end.
— Cry Baby Album Book
Meaning;
Pity Party is about Cry Baby inviting her friend Beth Anne and Johnny to her birthday party but nobody comes, so Cry Baby begins to wonder why she puts so much effort into everything just to be lonely every day. She regrets doing childish things to invite her guests. She feels immature, and doubts her little touches to the letters will get anyone to come to her party and blames herself. She attempts to shine light on the situation, even with nobody turning up, and assumes this will happen every year. She doesn't know whether to cry or laugh, soon slipping away from insanity. She eventually decides she doesn't need anybody else and can do what she wants.
Music Video and Lyrics;
(Pity Party Vide Posted June 1st, 2015)
[Verse 1]
Did my invitations disappear?
Why'd I put my heart on every cursive letter?
Tell me why the hell no one is here
Tell me what to do to make it all feel better
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe it's a cruel joke on me
Whatever, whatever
Just means there's way more cake for me
Forever, forever
[Chorus]
It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to (cry, cry, cry)
I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to (cry, cry, cry)
I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
[Verse 2]
Maybe if I knew all of them well
I wouldn't have been trapped inside this hell that holds me
Maybe if I casted out a spell
And told them decorations were in pastel ribbons
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe it's a cruel joke on me
Whatever, whatever
Just means there's way more cake for me
Forever, forever
[Chorus]
It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to (cry, cry, cry)
I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to (cry, cry, cry)
I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
[Bridge]
I'm laughing, I'm crying
It feels like I'm dying
I'm laughing, I'm crying
It feels like I'm dying
I'm laughing, I'm crying
It feels like I'm dying
I'm dying, I'm dying
It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to
It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to
[Scream]
[Chorus]
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to (cry, cry, cry)
I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to (cry, cry, cry)
I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
[Outro]
It's my party, it's-it's my party
It's my party, it's-it's my party
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to (cry, cry, cry, cry, cry)
